Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 pounds)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 2–3 limes)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 avocado, sliced (for serving)
  • 1 cup cooked rice (for serving)
  • Fresh cilantro (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, lime juice, soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
  2. Place chicken in a zip-top bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours).
  3. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  4. Remove chicken from marinade and discard excess liquid. Grill chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  5. Let the chicken rest for five minutes before slicing.
  6. To assemble, layer grilled chicken on a bed of rice, top with avocado slices and fresh cilantro.
